Ciao, Carlo Date: Mon, 17 Jun 1996 11:44:47 -0400 From: CKRESS@aol.com Subject: Strange skin excretions On June 15, Alex mentioned he had a friend whose skin exuded a blue substance while in deep meditation. I have no idea what it was, but I wonder if there is some esoteric connection to Krishna and other blue-skinned deities. Many mythological stories allude to "secret" spiritual processes. Any ideas about this? I know of a woman with risen Kundalini whose skin -- over her entire body -- exuded a blackish substance for several weeks. She said it had the texture of cobwebs and could be easily rubbed off. El (From an anonymous poster...) You are probably right. One of Shiva's 1008 names is niilakanTha (niila = blue, kanTha = neck). During the churning of the ocean (=saagara manthan, saagara = ocean & manthana = churning), which is probably an allegorical myth pertaining to the rising of the K, there came a vessel (I think) full of poison (vishha ) and this was going to poison the three worlds (cf 3 naadis for the rising of kundalinii shaktii!). Then Shiva undertook to drink it as he is 'out of Time'. The poison made his throat look blue, hence the name niilakanTha. Kaalii maataa is dark blue/dark. Kaali means dark as well as the Mistress controlling Time. There are 7 (!)forms of Kaalii. Hope this helps.
